Q:
Why would YOU want to be a BOD member?
The
BOD will have $100,000 in its complete control to distribute to
any AsAm orgs. and/or projects which share the same goal as 80-20 and
which see UNITY of the AsAm community as a must. Hence, an innovative
and effective BOD member can make a historic contribution to the
forging of UNITY within the AsAm community. $100,000 is a lot of money.
Currently, it is the combined annual budget of 80-20 PAC and EF.

either win rights TOGETHER or lose rights SEPARATELY.
Q:
How many BOD Members will be elected?
It
depends. The more candidates we’ll have, the more Board members
we’ll elect. All self nominations will be accepted. The prior consent of a nominee
is required, if a donor is to nominate others.

Q:
When will the election be?
As soon as the total donation to SELF reaches $300,000/yr for 5 years.
The current total is $256,000. We are still $44,000/yr short. We hope
that WITH YOUR HELP we can reach $300,000/yr in about 30 days.
